Saw it, it's literally terrible in the best way possible. Laughed through the whole thing at how terrible it was. The script is the worst I've ever heard and the music is atrocious. It does look amazing though, tech-wise, I have to say. Everyone should see it if they're having a bad day.

Saw the show a few weeks ago…it reminded me of the Lord of the Rings musical (which obviously was not very successful): the staging was really cool, and there were a couple good musical numbers, but otherwise the show is really weak.

Given the bad reviews, I have to believe people are choosing to see it because they're hoping to see yet another performer get seriously injured. Why do people watch NASCAR? Because they enjoy watching cars go around in a circle for hours? No. They're waiting and watching for a crash - the only excitement that happens in that sport.

"My metabolism actually changed like crazy this year. I have Hashimoto's disease. It's a thyroid disease, and it's now been two years since taking the medication for it, so for the VS show I didn't want to lose any more weight, I just want to have muscles in the right place, and if my butt can get a little perkier, then that's good."
